Police say Loughry found the 15-year-old through an online sex ad and paid $300 to have sex with her.

Loughry’s attorney, Craig Hendricks, declined to comment on the allegations but did speak out in court.

Hendricks is arguing that Loughry had no idea the girl was underage, stating that the ad listed her age as 22. Then he went on to say that the fire captain was "duped" by "an incredible scam."

Prosecutors are countering back. Chief Deputy District Attorney Alexander Chen says the sex trafficking of minors is a known issue, adding that Loughry took the risk which is why he is now charged with several felonies and facing prosecution.

“It's a serious thing when you're talking about sex trafficking and any person who is sex trafficked, our office is going to take that very seriously,” said Chen.

In addition to his $25,000 bail, Loughry's house arrest does come with conditions. He will only be allowed to visit his lawyer or court. The judge also ordered all access to internet must be removed from his home while he is there, including the smart phones of his wife and children, who were present in court today.
